Kurume Kasuri Small Cotton Pouch, Woven Cross
£19.00
Ex Tax: £15.83
A small patterned pouch with a handy loop to attach to a pocket or the inside of your bag, made using the traditional ‘Kasuri’ process, from the word kasureru, meaning ‘blurring’. Useful as a wash bag, a purse, a pencil case, and more. Kasuri is an iteration of an ancient technique, where patterns are dyed into threads before weaving rather than printed onto the finished product. The result is a characteristic 'blurry' or bleeding look to patterns of this make. Kurume-kasuri is a form of this process specifically from Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture. Take care around moisture and friction, as colour transfer of dyes may occur. Measures 15cm x 10cm x 1.5cm.
Care Advice
Wash at 30°C, and avoid bleach and softener, which can affect absorbency. Excessive heat from a tumble dryer can cause shrinkage, so to prevent this we recommend hanging to dry.
- Materials Cotton and metal
